      You said that your core and hamstrings won't be trained in squats, i read in your blueprint?

      They’ll pack significant size and strength onto your entire lower body (particularly the quads, glutes and hamstrings
      is what you said in the article of "The 10 key benefits of squats"
      in other places you said it is not effective for the core and hamstrings.
      please respond i am confused.

      Hey I am in a diet I have lost 8 kg in this month weighing 90 kgs now 6 foot but I can't feel the difference.
      My clothes are still tight to me and my waist size isn't reducing at all.
      I really am feeling shit any advice.

      @@Sufiyann803 You are doing well, just keep going. Eat your daily protein and you can reduce your calories a bit more to burn fat faster. Also your midsection/waist is usually tough and the last place where the body takes fat from. So you have to be patient and still keep going with your diet and your body will burn that fat. Remember to train sufficiently by training close to failure on all of your sets. You can include some walking cardio sessions for the week, and this will burn significantly more calories. Your name sounds like your a muslim, salaam aleikum. Hope this helps in sha Allah.

      Similarly, on the 45 degree leg press I put my hands together in-between my legs in a kind-of dive pose, and catch my knees with my elbows at the bottom of the ROM, but then remove them to push the weight back up. Why? Because I've injured my adductors on both sides trying to be seen to be doing the right form and full ROM in the past, so I don't give a F now if someone thinks I'm cheating; I'm protecting myself as I work hard. I also sometimes properly touch my thighs as shown (albeit very lightly) on the Cable leg press, but only if I'm doing slow, slightly limited-ROM finisher sets, where it helps to maintain the tension. My legs kill absolutely afterwards, so you decide whether it's a valid practice or not.

    Leg press is the only workout I use strictly light weights (40kg) because I only focus on my upper body, I know my legs aren't that strong even if I wanted to ego lift I'll most likely break my very thin legs.

    I agree on everything other than the hand placement. Do what is comfortable for you and don't assist the lift by pushing with your hands. That being said. Placing your hands lightly on your lower thighs will not effect anything but your posture. There is absolutely no info backing up that the handplacement is bad.

      @@ETBrooDno. It means you need to do another exercise to work on your rom and actually work your muscle groups. Trying to load up weight and do half or quarter reps, and then having a weak little excuse of “I dOnT hAvE fULl RaNge of MoTioN dude” is the definition of a fcking clwn. You’re exactly who he’s taking about.

    I disagree tht nobody gives a f*ck about how much weight you're lifting. I wish they didn't but there are always nosey people out there that can't just go to the gym, mind their own business and get their workout on and go. There is at least one person trying to watch you to see what you do or commenting on how much you are lifting.
    So what I can do the whole stack on the cable flyes? Anyone can do that if you've trained half your life! Why you gotta turn to your bro like "yoooo dis nga doin the whole stack!"? That's exactly why you can't! Mind ya business and lift!

      @@am529 for that ROM/movement range it's impressive. I do 650lbs just past right angle as that's about the limit I can bring it down before I can't go further due to leg muscles pushing against eachother. He's way more flexible than I am, I don't think I can even move my ankles like that with a tiny weight. I need to try now xD

      @manmoth4 3 місяці тому +1

      ​@@am529 Depends on your foot placement, ROM, and what angle the leg press is at. That's why numbers are so meaningless for it. I tend to treat it like a squat, put my feet further out, so I can do more. But I also go below parallel, so I do less. And my leg press machine raises the weight vertically rather than diagonally. Kinda pointless to compare

    Pressing the hands on the knees is not cheating at all. It gives you more stability on the lockout and it makes you overall more confident that your knees don't overextend. Sure, it makes the lift easier but you don't have to press the weight too much with your arms. But when you're getting close or to failure and you otherwise wouldn't get that last to reps you can use some assist from your ams.

    • @asprinklingofclouds

      I get far more stability pulling on the handles to drive the lower back into the backrest, there is no way I would be able to handle the weight I am using through the full range of motion by putting my hands on my knees.
